Phyllis Diller in Her Own Words

On August 20, 2012, the legendary comedian, Phyllis Diller, died at age 95. Last year, The Business producer Darby Maloney interviewed Diller for a BBC radio documentary about her. We hear excerpts of that conversation in which Diller describes her love of painting, her career as a comedian and her friendship with David Sedaris.
